    2025 MG 4 Electric Hatchback Debuts – Gets Cyberster Inspired Makeover

    2025 MG 4 Electric Hatchback DebutsChinese electric cars have been taking global markets by the storm now. However, many consider MG 4 electric hatchback to be the flag bearer of this movement. The first one to achieve major success outside of China. Now, SAIC Motor has updated MG 4 electric hatchback for MY25 with an all new design language. Let’s take a closer look.
    2025 MG 4 Electric Hatchback
    First launched in June 2022 as MG Mulan, MG 4 electric hatchback was introduced to global markets in July 2022 and has been a popular choice. It was later renamed MG 4 and continues the same name with its updated model which has just debuted with a massive design overhaul, taking inspirations from Cyberster electric sports car.
    While the current MG 4 looks sharp and edgy with a clear hint of aggression, the 2025 MG 4 is thoroughly updated to look a lot softer and friendlier. The company could have gone for a nip and tuck treatment, MG has gone overboard and has updated MG 4’s design completely making it look more mature than it did before.
    The new generation model has a softer design with smooth and flowing lines. It has curvy body now and boasts an overall rounded appeal. Front fascia is significantly less aggressive with new LED projector headlights, tapering bonnet, closed-off upper grill, honeycomb pattern lower grille and C-shaped design elements in front bumper.

Rear design is interesting with a connected bar LED tail light along with arrow-shaped LED tail lights, similar to that of Cyberster sports car.

    We also get a Black roof along with a sporty roof spoiler. Accentuating the sportiness of rear design, we have blackened elements around number plate area. Charging port is situated in the front left quarter panel. Depending on the trim level, MG 4 will get multiple designs for alloy wheels and some of them are White in colour as well.
    Chinese MIIT (Ministry of Industry and Information Technology) revealed that the 2025 MG 4 electric hatchback has grown in size as well. It measures 4,395 mm in length, 1,842 mm in width, 1,551 mm in height and has a 2,750 mm long wheelbase.

    MG Windsor EV Records 15k Production Milestone – 200 New Bookings Everyday

    MG WindsorIndia’s electric car segment has witnessed a new champion in the form of MG Windsor EV. This is India’s first CUV which has appealed to the country’s electric car buyers. It has quickly climbed the ladder of success and has emerged as India’s best-selling electric car and has also surpassed 15k units production milestone.
    MG Winsor EV Production Milestone
    Ever since it was launched, MG Windsor EV has been a popular choice in India’s electric car segment. The customer reception has been excellent, making it the country’s best-selling electric car for the fourth consecutive month (October 2024 to January 2025), contributing to the overall growth of India’s electric car segment.
    Since it was launched late last year, MG Windsor has achieved 15,000 units production milestone. Windsor EV’s order books are ringing with 200 bookings per day, across India. If not for the production slowdown in February 2025 due to facility modifications in Halol plant, this milestone would be achieved much earlier.
    Windsor EV packs a bunch of features and innovations, backed by premium interiors and best-in-segment roominess and comfort. Windsor EV also has well–sorted underpinnings giving it good range, performance and other paraphernalia. What stood out with MG Windsor EV is a revolutionary pricing system.
    MG Windsor EV
    MG is not only offering competitive pricing with the purchase, but the company is also offering segment-first battery rental BaaS (Battery as a Service) offers, significantly reducing the high up-front costs associated with an electric car. For buyers who don’t have high mileage needs, are gravitating towards Windsor EV.
    Windsor EV gets a 38-kWh battery powering an electric motor rated at 134 hp and 200 Nm, driving the front wheels. There are four drive modes – Eco+, Eco, Normal, and Sport. MG promises a range of 331 km on a single charge. DC fast charger ensures 80% SOC in 40 minutes.
    Statement from JSW MG Motor India
    Speaking on the occasion, Biju Balendran, Deputy Managing Director, JSW MG Motor India said, “We are delighted with the response that the MG Windsor has been receiving and are grateful to our customers who have helped us cross the 15,000-unit production milestone. The CUV has been widely accepted by car buyers for its overall pricing and packaging, and for offering a luxurious business-class experience to customers.
    Windsor has become No 1 selling electric car in Oct 2024
    Smart initiatives such as BaaS, the buyback program, and a lifetime warranty, have all boosted consumer confidence in EVs. As we diversify our portfolio, we remain committed to bringing quality products to our customers at a faster rate. Consequently, we are increasing the capacity of the facility at Halol to meet the rising demand for Windsor.
    Additionally, we are undertaking certain facility modifications to ensure readiness for new products under MG Select which is due for launch in the first half of this year. Hence, we anticipate a production slowdown during the month of February, which may temporarily affect our wholesales during this period”, he added further. More

    MG EV Sales Surpasses Tata Motors – Windsor EV, Nexon EV, Punch EV

    MG Windsor EVWith the launch of Windsor EV, JSW MG Motor India has redefined the electric car space with many innovations. Before Windsor EV, MG Motor launched ZS EV and then Comet EV, both of which contribute to MG’s overall market share in EV space. However, Windsor EV has not only managed to be the best-selling MG EV, but EV in general, sidelining Tata Motors’ offerings.
    MG EV Sales Surpasses Tata Motors
    If there is one brand which democratised EVs for the masses at affordable price tags is Tata Motors. The company held the throne of being the country’s highest-selling EV manufacturer, for a long time. Now, there seems to be a new people’s champion and it is MG Windsor EV, launched in September 2024.
    With the launch of MG Windsor EV, the company took great strides in packaging and marketing and the efforts have paid off. The main highlight here is the aggressive pricing strategy and the innovative BaaS pricing system. If we analyse the sales of top-three best-selling electric cars sold in India since September 2024, we can see a shift in popularity in favour of MG.
    Starting in September 2024, MG sold 502 units of Windsor EV whereas Tata Motors sold 663 units of Nexon EV and 1,025 units of Punch EV. In October 2024, MG Windsor EV had gained quite a lot of traction and is reflected in numbers as it sold 3,116 units, as opposed to 1,593 units of Nexon EV and 915 units of Punch EV.
    MG EV Sales Surpass Tata Motors’
    In November 2024, all three vehicles experienced MoM growth as Windsor clocked 3,144 units, Nexon EV 1,899 units and Punch EV 926 units. December 2024 was the best month for Windsor EV in terms of sales as it sold 3,785 units. At the same time, Tata sold 1,603 units of Nexon EV and 1,653 units of Punch EV.
    Double the sales than 2nd best-seller
    In January 2025, Windsor EV managed to sell 3,450 units, Nexon EV 1,289 units and Punch EV 1,189 units. In total, MG Motor managed to sell 13,997 units, which is almost double the volume of the second best-seller Nexon EV, which sold 7,047 units. At the same time, Punch EV managed to sell 5,708 units.
    With BaaS, MG is offering flexible pricing solutions that significantly reduce the upfront purchasing costs for buyers. Even without BaaS, MG’s prices are aggressive, something which has worked in their favour, especially considering the size and space along with comfort and performance. It has to be seen if Tata Motors come up with battery rental programs like the rumours are suggesting.
